I helped our neighbors build a tree house or two and liked playing in them. During the construction of one tree-house a neighbor dropped a hammer on my head which generated a fair amount of blood and temporarily halted the tree-house building project.<br />That process was completed the next day or if I remember correctly. I helped my own sons with some tree house ideas when they were young. Many of my tools would dissappear for a time as they went off into the woods to build a tree-house. Sometimes they needed to defend their tree-house from older teenagers.
